Yeah what you’re saying makes sense. I did a bit more research since posting this and less than 2 hours seems to be about right. Going to look elsewhere then. Thanks for replying!

Alright I’ll give it a go. Thanks

Is there any software that you know of that tells you your max battery life in hours and minutes as opposed to mWh? If not, I’m going to put it in power saving, on 50% brightness, charge it fully and leave it until it dies to see what the max battery life is :)

I've emailed them earlier this morning, and they've said I should only expect 90 mins of battery, which I don't understand as my laptop is nowhere near the top of the range! I know a bit about PCs but I'm not an expert, so maybe I'm missing something? Thanks for replying.
